Is it normal that I feel REALLY uncomfortable when I go to church? I've always gone to church as a child. Raised catholic. The whole time i was going i would feel uneasy and out of place. I completely stopped going around the age of 13. Then at the age of 16 I tried going to a couple different Christian churches. I thought that maybe because I was young that was the reason I felt uneasy. I'm almost 20 and I still feel extremely uncomfortable going to church. Ive gone with family, friends and by my self no matter how I go I still feel the same. It's weird I feel really uneasy driving pass different churches . Seeing people who go to church outside of church makes me feel really anxious. I pray to God everyday multiple times a day and thank him, that's not a problem. I'm just really kinda confused that I feel this way. Has anyone else felt this way?

    Perhaps you're coming down with a case of demonic possession.

    Mass is a bit intimidating, you feel pressured to pay attention, be reverent and thoughtful. Sometimes your mind dwells on things that aren't very "church appropriate" and you feel guilty. Pretty much everything about it is anxiety inducing. I'm not sure why you would get uneasy seeing other people going to church, unless its just the fact that it is reminding you of being there. A fear of church seems uncommon, but we all have strange fears or things that make us worry, so its normal.

    Perhaps you are finally becoming a logical person. Do you feel pressure in your head accompanied by lessening of religious thought? That's a brain growing in there.
